Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a new cyclohexane derivative, more particularly new derivative of 3,5-dioxo-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid, having high plant-growth regulating activities and to process for the preparation of said cyclohexane derivatives. This invention also relates to a plant-growth regulating composition comprising said cyclohexane derivative as the active ingredient, and further to a method of regulating the growth of a plant using said cyclohexane derivative.
- Various chemical compounds have been used for regulation of the growth of plants with a chemical substance, so called for the purpose of "chemical control" of the plant-growth. For example, maleic hydrazide (MH), N,N-dimethyl- aminosuccinic amide(known as Daminozide or B-Nine) and 2-chloroethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (known as Chlormequat or CCC) have been employed for retardation of plant-growth, for control of emergence of sideshooting or for prevention of lodging of plants. These known compounds, however, have various drawbacks that their uses are restricted in respect of the locus, plants and time which can effectively be treated with them, that their plant-growth regulating effects are insufficient or unstable, that they are phytotoxic, and/or that they are too expensive.
- We have made extensive studies in an attempt to provide new plant-growth regulators which are free from the aforementioned drawbacks of the known plant-growth regulators. As a result, we have now found that certain new cyclohexane derivatives which we have now newly synthetized exhibit some remarkable plant-growth regulating effects and are free from the drawbacks as described above.
- According to an aspect of this invention, therefore, there is provided a cyclohexane compound of the general formula:
- The alkyl group which R may represent in the general formula (I) includes those containing 1 to 8 carbon atoms, for example, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, iso-propyl, n-butyl, iso-butyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, and iso-pentyl groups.
- The alkyl group which R1 may represent includes those of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, iso-propyl, n-butyl, iso-butyl, n-pentyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl and n-octyl groups.
- The substituent on the substituted phenyl group which R may represent, as well as the substituent on the substituted benzyl group which R1 may represent may be a lower alkyl group of 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as methyl; halo group such as chloro; and a lower alkoxyl group of 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as methoxy.

- For plant-growth regulators to be applied onto grass swards, it is usually required that they should have a particularly improved saftety in their stimulus for human's skin and eye since they are frequently used for treatment of swards planted in golf links, parks or yards so that they are likely to be brought into direct contact with human bodies.

- The 3,5-dioxo-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid alkyl ester alkali metal salt of the above formula (III) may be prepared by reacting an acetonylsuccinic acid di-alkyl ester compound of the formula (II) with a basic reagent in a suitable solvent. This cyclization reaction can be carried out at a temperature ranging from room temperature to the boiling point of the solvent used for a period of 1 to 10 hours. The basic reagent to be used in this reaction includes an alkali metal alcoholate such as sodium methylate, sodium ethylate and potassium tert-buthoxide or an alkali metal hydride such as sodium hydride: Examples of the solvent used here may be methanol, ethanol, benzene, toluene, xylene, N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide and dimethylcellosolve.
- The 3,5-dioxo-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid or its alkyl ester compound of the formula (IV) can be made by treatment of the compound (III) prepared as above with an acid such as hydrochloric acid.
- The compound of the above formula (VI) can be prepared by condensing the compound (III) or (IV) in an inert organic solvent with an organic acid chloride of the formula (V) where R1 is as defined hereinbefore, in the presence or absence of y-picoline and in the presence or absence of a base. This condensation reaction may be carried out at a temperature in the range from -20°C to the boiling point of the solvent when used, and preferably at or below ambient temperature. The redaction time may vary from 10 minutes to 7 hours depending upon the reaction conditions employed. The base which may optionally be used in this reaction includes any of such acid-binding agents which are generally employed for the conventional dehydrohalogenation, for examples, organic bases such as trimethylamine, triethylamine, diethylamine, dimethylamine or pyridine and inorganic bases such as sodium or potassium hydroxide. The solvent available for this reaction may include water and/or organic solvents such as toluene, benzene, xylene, dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide and methylcellosolve. This condensation reaction is conveniently performed with the aid of y-picoline which will act as phase transition catalyst when using water and organic solvent as the reaction medium.
- The new compound of the formula (I) according to this invention can be produced by subjecting the intermediate compound of the above formula (VI) to a rearrangement reaction in the presence of a catalyst and an organic solvent at a temperature from room temperature to the boiling point of the solvent for a period of 1 to 10 hours. The catalyst to be used for this rearrangement reaction includes pyridine derivatives such as 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine, 4-N,N-diethylaminopyridine and 4-pyrolidinoaminopyridine; or N-alkylimidazole derivatives such as N-methylimidazole and N-ethylimidazole.
- The new compound (I) of this invention can be prepared without isolation or purification of said intermediate compounds (III), (IV) and (VI).
- According to a second aspect of this invention, therefore, there is provided a process for the production of a cyclohexane compound of the general formula (I):
- (b) subjecting the compound of the formula (VI) to an intermolecular rearrangement in the presence of a catalyst which is chosen from 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine, 4-N,N--diethylaminopyridine, 4-pyrolidinoaminopyridine, N-methylimidazole and N-ethylimidazole to produce the compound of the formula (I):
- (c) if desired, reacting the compound of the formula (I) with an inorganic or organic cation to produce the salt of the compound (I) with said inorganic or organic cation.
- As an alternative, such new compounds of the formula (I) where R is an alkyl group may be prepared by esterification of the corresponding free carboxylic acid compound according to the following briefed reaction scheme:-
- Thus, the compound of the formula (If) can be produced by a method comprising the reaction of the compound of the formula (Ie) with a halogenating agent in the presence or absence of a solvent and in the presence or absence of a base as an acid-binding agent, followed by a further esterification reaction of the acid halide derivative as formed with an alkanol(R'OH)of the formula (VII) in the presence or absence of a base. The reaction with the halogenating agent may be conducted at a temperature ranging from -20°C to the boiling point of the halogenating agent or of the solvent when used, and preferably at a temperature of from -10°C to 100°C for a period of 10 minutes to 7 hours to give an acid halide derivative of the compound (Ie). The halogenating agent to be used for the above purpose may be thionyl chloride, phosphorus trichloride, phosphorus pentachloride and phosphorus oxychloride. As the solvent which may be used for the halogenation reaction, there may be mentioned dichloromethane, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, benzene, toluene, xylene and the like.
- The subsequent reaction of esterifying the acid halide derivative with the alkanol (VII) may be carried out at a temperature of -20°C to 100°C for a time of 10 minutes to 48 hours. The base which is conveniently used for the halogenation and esterification includes those which have generally been employed for the conventional dehydrohalogenation as the acid-binding agent in the art and may be selected from organic bases such as triethylamine, pyridine, N,N-dimethylaminopyridine and N,N-dimethylaniline; and inorganic bases such as sodium hydroxide, potassium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate. The esterification with the alkanol (VII) may be conducted after or without separation of the intermediate acid halide derivative from the reaction medium.
- The salts of the new cyclohexane compounds of the formula (I) or (Ia) according to this invention can be prepared as follows:-
- Thus, for example, an organic or inorganic salt of the new cyclohexane compound may be produced by reacting in an organic solvent a compound of the general formula (I) or (Ia) with one or two or more equivalent proportions of a salt-forming reagent which is chosen from a primary, secondary or tertiary amine, a metal alcoholate, or a metal salt such as a chloride, sulfate, nitrate, acetate or carbonate; or hydride or hydroxide of a metal, for example, an alkali metal such as sodium, potassium; an alkaline earth metal such as calcium, magnesium, barium; aluminium, nickel, copper, manganese, cobalt, zinc, iron or silver. When the compound (I) or (Ia) is reacted with one equivalent proportion of the salt-forming reagent, either the salt formed will be in the form of the salt of the general formula (Ib) as indicated in Table 2 when the group R or R2 in the compound of the formula (I) or (Ia) is alkyl, or the salt formed will be in the form of the salt of the general formula (Ic) as indicated in Table 3 when R or R2 is hydrogen in the compound (I) or (Ia). If two or more equivalent proportions of the salt-forming reagent is reacted with the compound (I) or (Ia), the salt as formed will take the form of the general formula (Id) as indicated in Table 4, when R or R2 is a hydrogen atom in the compound (I) or (Ia).
- The new compounds of the formula (I) or (Ia) according to this invention may possibly undergo a tautomerism and may be present in the form of tautomeric isomers as shown below, which fall within the scope of this invention.
-
- It may be added that when the cyclohexane compound of the formula (Ia) where R2 is an alkyl group, is reacted with a primary, secondary or tertiary amine which may be represented by the formula
-
- In Tables 2-4, the salts of the new compounds with amine are represented as the type of the substituted ammonium salt as shown just above.
- The plant-growth regulating effects of the new compounds of the general formula (I) and the salts thereof are manifested predominantly as a stunting or dwarfing effect on the vegetative growth of plants, but other various plant-growth regulating effects may be manifested by modifying the nature of plants to be treated and the means, times and rates of application of the compounds or salts. Such plant-growth regulating effects which may be induced by the new compound of this invention include promotion of rooting, reduction in risk of lodging, promotion of sideshooting and root growth, maintenance of green color of stems and leaves, promotion or delay of flowering, promotion of fruiting and ripening, and increase in resistances to temperature hindrance, to phytotoxicity caused by herbicides and to fungal or bacterial diseases. These various effects are not always manifested at a time.
- The new compounds (including the salts) of this invention can control internode elongation of cereals and prevent or reduce lodging of rice, wheat, barley, maise and the other crop-plants by foliage and/or soil-treatment. Application of the compound of this invention to seedlings of aquatic rice and growing vegetables can lead an improvement in quality, rooting after transplanting, and resistance to low temperature.
- The foliage treatment with the new compound during the vegetative stage of crop plants, e.g. aquatic rice, wheat and barley also induces shortening of top leaves or improvement in leaf orientation and hence increases in light interception and utilization which will enhance the ripening and increase the overall grain yield of such crop-plants.
- Moreover, the compound of this invention may suppress spindly growth of flowers, ornamental plants and horticultural plants which may be caused due to high temperature or sunshine shortage in plantation in a greenhouse.
- The compound of the invention which exhibits the above-mentioned plant-growth regulating effects are very useful not only for agricultural and horticultural treatment but also for control of plant growth in non-crop lands. For instance, when the compound of this invention is applied onto lawns in park, playing field, golf link, airport or embankment or undergrowth grasses in orchard or pasture land, it is possible to inhibit the overluxuriant growth, to reduce the number of reaping and/or to facilitate the mowing operations as usually required for maintenance. Further, application of the new compound of this invention onto swards can promote sideshooting and increase the planting density of swards.
- The compounds of this invention may be used as such for plant-growth regulating purposes but are more conveniently formulated into compositions for such usage. According to a third aspect of this invention, there is thus provided a plant-growth regulating composition compris- inging a compound of the general formula (I) as hereinbefore defined or a salt thereof in combination with a carrier or diluent.
- The invention also provides a method of regulating the growth of plant, which comprises applying an effective amount of a cyclohexane compound of the formula (I) or a salt thereof of this invention to the foliage or seed of the plant to be treated or to the soil or locus where the plant to be treated is grown.
- The compounds and salt can be applied in a number of ways, for example,they can be applied, formulated or unformulated, directly to the foliage of a plant, or they can be applied also to bushes and trees, to seeds or to other medium in which plants, bushes or trees are growing or are to be planted, or they can be sprayed on, dusted cn or applied as a cream or paste formulation, or they can be applied as slow release granules.
- The compounds are preferably used for agricultural and horticultural purposes in the form of a composition. The type of composition used in any instance will depend upon the particular purpose envisaged.
- The compositions may be in the form of dusting powders or granules comprising the active ingredient and a solid diluent or carrier, for example fillers such as kaolin, bentonite, dolomite, calcium carbonate, talc, powdered magnesia, Fuller's earth, gypsum, diatomaceous earth and China clay.
- The compositions may also be in the form of dispersible powders, granules or grains comprising a wetting agent to facilitate the dispersion in liquids of the powder or grains which may contain also fillers and suspending agents.
- The aqueous dispersions or emulsions may be prepared by dissolving the active ingredient(s) in an organic solvent optionally containing wetting, dispersing or emulsifying agent(s) and then adding the mixture to water which may also contain wetting, dispersing or emulsifying agent(s). Suitable organic solvents are kerosene, cyclohexanone, methylethyl ketone, acetone, methanol and acetonitrile.
- The compositions may also be in the form of liquid preparations for use as dips or sprays which are generally aqueous dispersions or emulsions containing the active ingredient in the presence of one or more of wetting agent(s), dispersing agent(s), emulsifying agent(s) or suspending agent(s). These agents can be anionic or nonionic agents.
- The compositions for use as aqueous dispersions or emulsions are generally supplied in the form of a concentrate containing a high proportion of the active ingredient(s), and the concentrate is to be diluted with water before use.
- The plant-growth regulating composition of this invention may usually be formulated into a wettable powder comprising 5 to 95%, preferably 10 to 50% by weight of the new compounds of this invention as active ingredient; 1 to 20%, preferably 5 to 10% by weight of surfactant; and 4 to 44%, preferably 40 to 85% by weight of solid carrier.

- The rate of application of the new compounds of this invention for use in the purposes of plant-growth regulation will normally depend on various factors, including nature of plants to be treated, application time and application means. In general, however, the rate of application may be in the range of 0.01 kg to 50 kg per hectare and preferably of 0.05 kg to 10 kg per hectare as the active ingredient.
- For the purpose of preventing or reducing lodging of crop plants such as wheat, the rate of application may desirably be in a range of 0.1 kg to 1 kg per hectare as the active ingredient. For the purpose of suppressing the growth of swards in non-crop lands or undergrowth-grasses in orchards, the rate of application may be in a range of 0.5 kg to 5 kg per hectare as the active ingredient. For the purpose of regulating the growth of aquatic rice plants, the rate of application may be in the range of 0.5 kg to 5 kg per hecatre as the active ingredient when it is applied to the soil, and the formulations to be applied to the foliage of aquatic rice plant may contain the active ingredient at a concentration of 100 ppm to 5000 ppm. In general, the composition of this invention may be formulated into a diluted or dilutable preparation containing the active ingredient at a concentration of 10 ppm to 10,000 ppm and preferably of 100 ppm to 5000 ppm for use in the foliage treatment.

- 1.4 g (6.6m moles) of 3,5-dioxo-4-propionylcyclohexane- carboxylic acid was dissolved in 30 mi of ethanol, and 0.7 g (6.6 m moles) of anhydrous sodium carbonate was added to the solution. The resultant mixture was heated under reflux for 6 hours, after which the reaction solution was cooled and filtered to leave a crystal. Recrystallization of the crystal from a mixed solvent of ethanol, methanol and hexane gave 1.3 g of the desired di-sodium salt compound as a pale yellow powder having a melting point of 240°C (decomp.).
- 2.0 g of 4-butyryl-3,5-dioxo-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid was dissolved in a mixture of methanol and water (1:1), to which was then added 0.72 g of sodium hydroxide. After complete dissolution of the latter, the resulting solution was allowed to stand overnight, followed by removal of the methanol and water by distillation under reduced pressure. There was thus obtained 2.4 g of the object compound as a redish brown viscous liquid with
- 4.2 g of ethyl 3,5-dioxocyclohexanecarboxylate and 3.4 g of triethylamine were dissolved in 50 m£ of dichloromethane, to which was added dropwise 2.9 g of propionyl chloride under stirring at room temperature. The resultant mixture was allowed to react at ambient temperature for 2 hours, after which the reaction solution was washed with water and admixed with a dilute aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution to remove the acidic matters from the reaction solution. The organic layer was then separated from the aqueous phase, dried and concentrated to a small volume. The concentrated solution was taken up in 20 m£ of toluene, followed by addition of 0.5 g of 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine and heating the mixture at 85°C for 3 hours. Thereafter, the toluene was removed from the reaction solution by distillation under reduced pressure, and the residue was chromatographed on silica gel using benzene as developing solvent to afford 2.5 g of the title compound (Compound No. 9 of Table 1) as colorless flakes having a melting point of 55-56°C.
- 28.8 g of sodium salt of ethyl 3,5-dioxocyclohexanecarboxylate was admixed with 100 mℓ of toluene and 50 mℓ of ice water, and to the resulting suspension was added 0.3 g of γ-picoline. To the mixture obtained was added dropwise 15 g of n-butyryl chloride with stirring over about two hours, and the resultant mixture was continued to be stirred for 30 minutes. The toluene layer was then separated from the aqueous phase, dried and concentrated to a small volume. The concentrated solution was dissolved in 20 m1 of toluene and 0.8 g of 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine was added to the solution, which was then heated at 80-90°C under agitation for 3 hours. Thereafter, the toluene was removed from the reaction solution by distillation under reduced pressure, and the residue was chromatographed on silica gel developing with benzene to yield 19.5 g of the title compound (Compound No. 15 of Table 1) as pale yellow prisms with a melting point of 34-35°C.

- A similar wettable powder was produced by the same procedure as above but using Compound No. 45 instead of
-
- A similar emulsifiable concentrate was prepared by the same procedure as described above but replacing Compound No. 15 by Compound No. 46.
- A composition in the form of grains was prepared by uniformly mixing and grinding together 5 parts of Compound No. 13, 2 parts of sodium laurylsulfate, 5 parts of sodium lignosulfonate, 2 parts of carboxymethylcellulose and 86 parts of clay, followed by addition of 20 parts of water per 80 parts of the mixture.

- A similar granular composition was made up by repeating the above procedure but replacing Compound No. 13 by Compound No. 47.
- 4 parts of Compound No. 16, 5 parts of kieselguhr and 91 parts of clay were homogeneously mixed and ground together to formulate into a dusting powder.
- The above procedure was repeated using Compound No. 48 instead of Compound No. 16 to produce a similar dusting powder.
- A paste formulation was prepared by mixing uniformly 5 parts of Compound No. 9, 1 part of xylene, 5 parts of polyoxyethylenesorbitan monolaurate and 89 parts of white vaseline as paste base.
- A similar paste formulation was made up by the same procedure as mentioned above except that Compound No. 9 was replaced by Compound No. 49.
- The following Examples illustrate the plant-growth regulating effects of the compounds according to this invention.
- This Example illustrates the retardation effect of the compounds of this invention on the growth of aquatic rice plants.
- Aquatic rice plants ("Kinmage" Variety) at the two- leaf stage were treated with the compounds of this invention under test. Thus, the compounds were formulated into a wettable powder as prepared in Example 16 and the wettable powder was diluted with such a volume of water that 1000 t of the diluted aqueous preparations as sprayed gave the rate of application of 1 kg of the active ingredient per hectare upon the foliage treatment by spraying.
-
- A = (Foliar length in untreated plots 3 weeks after application) - (Foliar length in untreated plots on the day of application)
- B = (Foliar length in treated plots 3 weeks after application) - (Foliar length in treated plots on the day of application)
-
- The results of Table 6 indicate that rice plant height can be controlled by the application of the new compounds of this invention and thus spindly growth of rice plant can be prevented.
- This Example illustrates the stunting effect of the compounds of this invention on the growth of grass swards.
- Creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) ("Seaside" Variety) and Japanese lowngrass (Zoysia japonica) of 2 cm in height were sprayed with the diluted aqueous preparations containing the compounds of this invention. The diluted aqueous preparations as used were prepared by formulating the compounds into wettable powder as in Example 16 and diluting the wettable powder with such a volume of water that 1000 Q of the diluted aqueous preparations as sprayed gave the rate of application of 1 kg of the active ingredient per hectare upon the foliage treatment by spraying.
- 5 Weeks after application of the compounds, assessment was made and percentage of retradation was calculated in the same way as described in Example 21. Phytotoxicity was also assessed for some of the test compounds and indicated by the following scales:
- From the results of Tables 7a and 7b as above, it will be seen that the new compounds and salts of this invention exert the stunting or dwarfing effects on lawn grasses for a long period without significant phytotoxic effects and without deteriously affecting the appearance (particularly the color) of the grass, so that the compounds of this invention are useful to reduce the need for mowing the grass swards.
- This Example illustrates the improvements in quality of rice seedlings by application of the compounds of this invention.
- Emergent seeds of aquatic rice ("Kinmaze" Variety) were sown in a rice-planting case of 30 x 60 cm in size, then covered with soil and irrigated with water. The compounds under test were formulated into an emulsifiable concentrate as stated in Example 17 which was then diluted with water so that the diluted -emulsions contained the active ingredient at the concentrations as indicated in Table 8 below. The diluted emulsions so formulated were sprayed onto the soil surface at the rate of 20 mi per case. The cases were then kept in a thermostatic chamber at 30°C for 3 days and further placed in a greenhouse. When the rice seedlings in untreated plots had reached the stage of 2.5 leaf age, the height of seedlings, leaf age and dry weights of the foliage parts (stems/leaves) and roots of the treated and untreated plants were measured. Some members of the seedlings were washed with water, and then the seedlings were transplanted into and placed at an angle of 45° in a pot flooded with water to 2 cm depth, after cutting the roots into the constant length of 2 cm. 10 Days later, the rising angle of the seedlings and the chlorophyll content of their second leaf were determined.
- The results are shown in Table 8 below, where the assessment particulars other than the rising angle are indicated in terms of the percentages based on the results obtained for the untreated plots.
-
- This Example illustrates the suppressive effect of the compounds of this invention on internode elongation of aquatic rice plants.
- 3 hills (each hill comprising two seedlings) of aquatic rice seedlings ("Kinmaze" Variety) at the 3 leaf stage were transplanted in a 1/2000 are Wagner pot. 35 Days after transplanting, a dilute aqueous emulsion containing the test compound which had been prepared by diluting with water an emulsifiable concentrate formulated as in Example 17 was added dropwise into the flooding water in the pot at an application rate of 1 kg of the active ingredient per hectare.
- 3 Months after the application, assessments were made on the stem length, length of each of the first to fifth internodes and weight of each unit internode. The test results are indicated in Table 9 in terms of the percentages based on those in the untreated plots. The "unit internode weight" means dry weight of the internode of 1 cm long.
-
- From the results of Table 9 as above, it will be seen that the new compounds of this invention exert the stunting effects on the elongation of the lower (third to fifth) internodes of aquatic rice plants and make these lower internodes thick and strong, so that the compounds are useful to reduce the risk of lodging of aquatic rice plants.
- This Example illustrates that the compounds of this invention reduce the risk of lodging of wheat plants.
- Seeds of wheat ("Norin" No. 61 Variety) were sown in a field. When the wheat plants were grown to a stage of 30 to 40 cm in height, the field was divided into several plots each of 10 m2 area. The wheat plants in each plot were treated by spraying their foliage evenly with a diluted aqueous preparations which had been prepared by formulating the compounds of this invention into a wettable powder as stated in Example 16 and diluting the wettable powder with such a volume of water that 500 litres of the diluted aqueous preparations so sprayed gave the rates of application of active ingredient as indicated in the following Table 10. For comparison purpose, 2-chloroethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (CCC, known as chlormequat) was tested in the same manner as above.
- 80 Days after the treatment, the length of stem of the wheat plants and the extent of lodging were evaluated. The results obtained are tabulated in Table 10 below.
-
- This Example demonstrates that the salts of the cyclohexane compounds of the formula (Ia) according to this invention have reduced influences on eyes in contact with the latter.
- 3 Rabbits (Female, "Japan White" Variety, 4 months-age) of which eyeballs were found to suffer from no damage by a check with 5% aqueous fluorescein sodium solution were fixed on a fixing table. 100 mg of the test compounds as such were dropped into the left eyes of the rabbits and their eyelids were closed for one seconds, after which the rabbits were placed in a breeding case. The right eyes were remaining untreated for control. Eye-examinations were made 24 hours and 2, 3, 4, 7, 14 and 21 days after the treatment. The stimulus responses were evaluated in respect of various observations as indicated in Table 11, and the results are set out in Table 12.
- A value of a product of scale (A) x scale (B) x 5 was calculated and indicated as "Evaluation scores" of stimulus to cornea in the following Table 12, but this calculated value did not extend over the
maximum value 80 even for the worst case. -
- A value of a product of scale (A) x 5 was calculated and indicated as "Evaluation scores" of stimulus to iris in Table 12, but this calculated value did not extend over the
maximum value 10 even for the worst case. -
